I have such a difficult time understanding how that's even possible.

I'm not discounting her testimony, because it is historical in scope, or her courage, which is immeasurable in the context of threats and pressure from Trumpsters, but how? How does one not see that he was always like that?

Because it gives her testimony even more credibility- this wasn’t someone with a political grudge against him. No hidden political agenda. She was on his team. Makes her testimony powerful.

That's been kind of a common theme with a lot of the testimony -- it comes from former Trump loyalists. That makes it, as you noted, all the more powerful.

Against him because he didn't hire her in Florida. So I wonder is that true did she still want to work for him after all we saw today and after all she knew?

Her take away is that Trump's insurrection "ruined his legacy." Fuck that idiocy.

I'm sure she loves the country. But I'll bet she's all down for the voter suppression and the billionaire tax cuts and thinks Antifa & BLM are bigger problems than police violence.

I'm grateful that she puts country ahead of party and quietly disapproved of the violent attempt to overthrow the government. But she didn't do shit to publicize the crimes until the J6 committee asked for it. Let's not go overboard and give her the Medal of Honor just cause she didn't kick the neighbors' chihuahua over the hedges.

She is such a contrast to Trump and his crew.
